[asterisk-dev] European Asterisk Developer's Meet-Up: Last Call

Tue Apr 28 15:28:19 CDT 2009

Hi John,

   Ok, here's two topics I have on my mind for some time now, but don't 
have the faintest clue on where to start from with the 1.6 code base.

1. Adding INC(${VAR}) and DEC(${VAR}) functions, in order to promote a 
simpler way to using the While() application.

2. Adding an XML-RPC requester application to Asterisk - this is really
complex. I've got some preliminary design, but again, I'm a little 
stomped as to where to begin.

   Another topic I've been battling actively is adding hebrew support to 
the queues mechanism, however, I seem to be missing something in there 
in the logic - so if anyone can assist me a little with some hands on 
this one, I'll appreciate it.

Cheers...
